The Take
Community's Britta Perry quickly evolved from a tough idealist into a goofy ditz that felt almost unrecognizable... Many viewers did *not* like that Britta essentially got Britta'd by the show, but if we take a closer look we see that her story actually does make a lot of sense (& is even surprisingly relatable!) Check out our new video to see our full analysis of Britta & her change: https://youtu.be/YGKdgusWgIg
